Death or Life

Every Christian every day chooses death or life. The result of his or her choice will appear in the day of resurrection. The goal of the Christian warfare is to attain to the resurrection to eternal life, particularly eternal life in the body. It is time today for God's ministers and people to place the kind of experience they will have in the day of resurrection at the forefront of their thinking.

The "rapture" is being preached in our time as though it were a central topic of the New Testament. The truth is, there can be no catching up of the saints until they first have been resurrected, until mortality has been swallowed up by incorruptible resurrection life. It is attaining to the resurrection unto life, not the catching up, that is the central message of the Gospel of the Kingdom of God
